[QUOTE="copepod, post: 156928, member: 21372"] The test for getting higher rate mobilty component of Disability Living Allowance is high "unable of virtually unable to walk". So, worth appealling, but still may not get HRM DLA. There are also Lower Rate Mobility Component for people who need guidance or supervision to get round unfamiliar places and Higher, Middle and Lower Rates of Care Component. Any combination of levels of Mobility and / or Care are possible, including getting just one or other. The 15 points referred to by Donnellysdogs relates to Incapacity Benefit Employment Support Allowance, which is a work relacement benefit, which can be dependent on previous National Insurance contributions. In any case, best to get advice from CAB or any benefits advice agency. [/QUOTE]
